I’ll introduce how to check differences between Shopify API versions.

Background: Shopify API Version

I conducted preliminary research to avoid breaking things after upgrading the Shopify API Version.

If you want to check the overall picture, I recommend reading the following official Shopify documentation:

Example) Checking FulfillmentOrderStatus Differences

For example, to check the differences in FulfillmentOrderStatus between 2021-04 and 2021-07:

https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/2021-04/enums/FulfillmentOrderStatus https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/2021-07/enums/FulfillmentOrderStatus

I extracted only the Valid values and ran a diff, with the following result:

$ diff 2021-04_enums_FulfillmentOrderStatus.txt 2021-07_enums_FulfillmentOrderStatus.txt
12a13,15
> ON_HOLD
> The fulfillment order is on hold and can't be fulfilled.

That’s all from the Gemba about checking differences between Shopify API versions.
